Designed in collaboration with Bob Balch, riffmeister with stoner rock/fuzz metal progenitors Fu Manchu. This humbucker is based on our Chisel model, but features a brass cover and brass baseplate. The brass slightly reduces output and treble, while enhancing the overall midrange. The result is a thick tone with excellent clarity that cuts through even with heavy fuzz. And like all Railhammers, they sound great clean too. Perfect for stoner rock, fuzz metal, post-Sabbath, or for any player looking for a unique combination of clarity and warm midrange. Chrome only, with laser etched signature. And like all Railhammers, the extra clarity on the wound strings means they also work great with low tuned guitars.
